Abortion and the Church

“Failing to preach about abortion offends women more grievously than preaching about it.

“If the sin of abortion is never mentioned, then the Gospel—that Gospel pastors have been called to proclaim—is never applied to that sin nor to those caught up in the pain and guilt of abortion. Instead, Satan whispers through the silence, 'This sin is so awful, even Jesus can’t forgive you.’”
